1985, "Nitro" on the "Lowlife" vinyl compilation recorded and released by Ironwood Studios.
1986, Sessions with Jack Endino, who had only opened Reciprocal Studios two months before. These tunes feature a heavier edge melding of postpunk, hard rock, and acid pop with strychnine melodies. Airplay on KCMU. "Push" released on the KCMU compilation "Bands That Will Make Money."
1987, Final album recorded by Ric Vaughan at Audio Designs. The band spent almost an entire year recording and re-recording these songs, trying to get exactly what they wanted. They felt like they succeeded when Tad Doyle, a friend who had played drums in H-Hour (with whom BOH had played many shows), joined Bundle of Hiss on guitar. This was in '88. Tad appeared on a few of the last Audio Designs tunes. One of three multitrack master tapes--containing some tracks featuring Doyle and also some of what all the band members believe to be their hottest tunes--was sadly lost sometime after this session was completed, never to be recovered.
During the Grunge Explosion, what happened to the Bundle of Hiss tapes? They moldered away in Ric Vaughan's Audio Designs studio, until Jamie and Kurt valiantly retrieved them sometime in '92 or so.
There was always mumbled talk among band members and other interested parties of remixing, mastering, and releasing the material; but no one had the time to devote to the project--until now.
In the fall of '98 fabled engineer/producer Jack Endino called Jamie. Jack offered to remix and remaster the tapes if they were still available. Jamie contacted Kurt and Dan; the three conducted intensive searches, coming up empty-handed. Then, Dan hit pay dirt. The BOH tapes had found their way into Dan's basement; Dan didn't know that until he stumbled onto them, much to BOH's collective delight, while shot gunning an icy cold 32 ounce can of malt liquor.
This 12 song Bundle of Hiss CD represents the fruits of Jack Endino's salvage operations: the songs are fat, heavy, crunchy, clean, and true.
These recordings constitute the peculiarly ravenous animal that is Bundle of Hiss circa '86-'88 and stand as the only documents of the band's final and most productive period.
When the tapes were unpacked at the first salvage session, it was discovered that a blank reel had apparently been mistakenly stuffed into a tape-box labeled BOH. At the time of this writing, Jack is struggling to restore some tunes off the much-mourned lost reel from old cassettes, some of which might be just good enough to save.
